00:08:12,760 --> 00:08:15,160
Speaker 1: worst tanked ever? Tanked at stand up?

159
00:08:15,280 --> 00:08:17,680
Speaker 2: Like a fucking show that just like shook you to

160
00:08:17,720 --> 00:08:21,480
Speaker 2: your cores, shook me too much, shook it you to

161
00:08:21,520 --> 00:08:23,520
Speaker 2: the core I'll start.

162
00:08:23,680 --> 00:08:25,920
Speaker 1: This was actually my worst one and it had to

163
00:08:25,960 --> 00:08:29,480
Speaker 1: do with drinking. And I doubt this is the drunkest

164
00:08:29,280 --> 00:08:31,200
Speaker 1: start because I used to be. When I first started

165
00:08:32,320 --> 00:08:34,560
Speaker 1: stand up, I was like, well, gotta have it lost

166
00:08:34,600 --> 00:08:36,560
Speaker 1: two or three beers before I like go up and

167
00:08:36,600 --> 00:08:39,200
Speaker 1: talk to people. That's that completely changed when I watched

168
00:08:39,240 --> 00:08:41,000
Speaker 1: a video of myself and I was like, oh, you

169
00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:43,280
Speaker 1: were like sloppy, Joe. Oh, I won't even take a

170
00:08:43,320 --> 00:08:46,199
Speaker 1: sip of something before I got It's like, like I

171
00:08:46,600 --> 00:08:50,360
Speaker 1: take one sip of alcohol, I'm like, I think I'm

172
00:08:50,400 --> 00:08:53,440
Speaker 1: already on the cusp of slurring stone sober.

173
00:08:53,480 --> 00:08:56,880
Speaker 2: I saw a video of me just hanging out with

174
00:08:56,920 --> 00:08:58,839
Speaker 2: my friends on my couch this weekend and I was

175
00:08:58,880 --> 00:09:00,559
Speaker 2: a little like sloppy and I was like, that was

176
00:09:00,679 --> 00:09:03,080
Speaker 2: even on stage And only like two people have seen

177
00:09:03,120 --> 00:09:06,360
Speaker 2: this video, just sloppy on my couch this weekend, and

178
00:09:06,400 --> 00:09:08,960
Speaker 2: I was like, I E so I couldn't imagine on stage,

179
00:09:09,120 --> 00:09:10,040
Speaker 2: like oh.

180
00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:11,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't want an audience to see that. Yeah,

181
00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:15,920
Speaker 1: it's like depressing something Like what is he repressing?

182
00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:17,120
Speaker 4: Nothing?

183
00:09:17,160 --> 00:09:18,880
Speaker 1: I'll deal with today. Yeah.

184
00:09:18,920 --> 00:09:21,880
Speaker 2: It's like at my birthday party, I was pretend before

185
00:09:21,920 --> 00:09:24,440
Speaker 2: I even started drinking. I was pretending I was all

00:09:24,480 --> 00:09:26,480
Speaker 2: fucked up on stage. I was like spitting and like.

187
00:09:27,400 --> 00:09:29,200
Speaker 2: But I was like, oh, this audience doesn't know if

188
00:09:29,240 --> 00:09:31,040
Speaker 2: I'm actually this fucked up. It was in the afternoon,

00:09:40,400 --> 00:09:42,800
Speaker 2: cause it's kind of like dark if I'm super fucked up.

193
00:09:42,800 --> 00:09:45,480
Speaker 2: At like two pm. Yeah, I was like, so I

194
00:09:45,520 --> 00:09:47,520
Speaker 2: hadn't started drinking yet, so I was like, Oh. It

195
00:09:47,559 --> 00:09:49,120
Speaker 2: was funny to me because I was like, I was

196
00:09:49,160 --> 00:09:52,760
Speaker 2: sober behaving that way. But I was like, but I'm

197
00:09:52,760 --> 00:09:55,920
Speaker 2: really selling it like they think I'm like darkly fucking.

198
00:09:56,760 --> 00:09:59,360
Speaker 1: I was like, I was like, I gotta I feel back.

199
00:09:59,400 --> 00:10:02,000
Speaker 1: And then I was like, hey, what up? Oh? And

200
00:10:02,080 --> 00:10:05,080
Speaker 1: I was like yeah, okay, all right, so you get

201
00:10:05,080 --> 00:10:07,600
Speaker 1: on stage. What what year is this? This is probably

202
00:10:08,040 --> 00:10:10,439
Speaker 1: where are you at. This is probably two thousand and

203
00:10:12,160 --> 00:10:15,480
Speaker 1: thirteen or fourteen, and I was in Boston at that point.

204
00:10:15,840 --> 00:10:18,800
Speaker 1: I had a kid. No, no, no, before I had

205
00:10:18,800 --> 00:10:21,920
Speaker 1: a kid, it doesn't matter. But I was in Boston

206
00:10:22,200 --> 00:10:26,120
Speaker 1: visiting some friends and I hadn't, and I'd heard all

207
00:10:26,120 --> 00:10:28,520
Speaker 1: about Boston Comedy. In New York. You always hear people

208
00:10:28,520 --> 00:10:31,880
Speaker 1: from other cities, like think about Boston Comedy, who is

209
00:10:31,920 --> 00:10:34,960
Speaker 1: We're the best? Or Chicago Comedy with everyone's the best

210
00:10:35,040 --> 00:10:38,319
Speaker 1: from their little region and everyone's excited for you when

211
00:10:38,360 --> 00:10:41,240
Speaker 1: you come to New York or LA and talk about

212
00:10:41,240 --> 00:10:46,400
Speaker 1: another city that you're from. And so I went to

213
00:10:46,440 --> 00:10:48,160
Speaker 1: the Boston thing and I was like, told, it's like

214
00:10:48,200 --> 00:10:51,760
Speaker 1: this is the exclusive showcase show that you know, and

215
00:10:51,760 --> 00:10:53,520
Speaker 1: I don't know, I know, someone got me, Like I

216
00:10:53,640 --> 00:10:55,679
Speaker 1: emailed the right person and I got on the thing.

217
00:10:56,160 --> 00:10:58,480
Speaker 1: But before my friend Jay is that I grew up with.

218
00:10:58,559 --> 00:11:03,079
Speaker 1: He like works in he's like a construction like hot

219
00:11:03,200 --> 00:11:06,599
Speaker 1: like a project manager, like I guess, like the equivalent

220
00:11:06,640 --> 00:11:09,840
Speaker 1: of like a producer on a TV show for you know,

221
00:11:09,960 --> 00:11:13,800
Speaker 1: like they fucking I don't know counts beans make sure

222
00:11:13,920 --> 00:11:16,200
Speaker 1: people show up on time. But part of his job

223
00:11:16,320 --> 00:11:19,880
Speaker 1: is he takes clients out. So he has this gold

224
00:11:19,960 --> 00:11:22,480
Speaker 1: card and like knows all the restaurants and can get

225
00:11:22,480 --> 00:11:25,200
Speaker 1: it everywhere. So we go to this restaurant before the

226
00:11:25,320 --> 00:11:28,040
Speaker 1: performance and he's just like, you gotta try this bourbon.

227
00:11:28,880 --> 00:11:31,560
Speaker 1: You gotta try this bourbon, and it's like, I'll be

228
00:11:31,559 --> 00:11:33,400
Speaker 1: honest you, I don't even drink hard liquor, and it

229
00:11:33,679 --> 00:11:36,320
Speaker 1: when I did it all tastes kind of the same.

230
00:11:36,400 --> 00:11:39,800
Speaker 1: It's all good, but I don't really care. Like I'm

231
00:11:39,800 --> 00:11:40,479
Speaker 1: like wow.

232
00:11:40,240 --> 00:11:46,400
Speaker 2: Because as soon as you're like discerning nuanced bourbon taste.

233
00:11:46,480 --> 00:11:49,680
Speaker 1: So we were like nuanced bourbon tasting. But like with

234
00:11:49,760 --> 00:11:51,800
Speaker 1: the expense card, we just kept doing it and doing it.

235
00:11:51,840 --> 00:11:54,160
Speaker 1: And two friends from high school and my cousin Bob

236
00:11:54,400 --> 00:11:56,200
Speaker 1: and you had the show later that night. Yeah, show

237
00:11:56,240 --> 00:11:59,040
Speaker 1: later that night, and so four of us are getting like, yeah,

238
00:11:59,200 --> 00:12:03,360
Speaker 1: straight bourbon lost other people too. I feel like other

239
00:12:03,400 --> 00:12:06,200
Speaker 1: people from high school were like aye, up here too.

240
00:12:06,559 --> 00:12:09,400
Speaker 1: I'm like, oh cool. Like a bunch of people came

241
00:12:09,440 --> 00:12:12,000
Speaker 1: out and I was getting I start getting sauced. I

242
00:12:12,040 --> 00:12:15,640
Speaker 1: was getting sauced, and I spent all my my comedy

243
00:12:15,720 --> 00:12:19,360
Speaker 1: juice at the dinner. Oh You're like like ra raight, hey,

244
00:12:19,640 --> 00:12:22,160
Speaker 1: now we're cool. And when I got to the place

245
00:12:22,160 --> 00:12:24,240
Speaker 1: and like, I don't know these guys and they were like, Okay,

246
00:12:24,240 --> 00:12:28,800
Speaker 1: you're gonna go for I'm like, Barry, that sounds great,

247
00:12:29,000 --> 00:12:32,520
Speaker 1: and like my eyes are like bloodshot. He smell yeah,

248
00:12:32,559 --> 00:12:35,200
Speaker 1: it was like Charles Bukowski by the time I got there.

249
00:12:35,960 --> 00:12:39,640
Speaker 1: And also I remember going up there slurring my speech,

250
00:12:39,880 --> 00:12:41,800
Speaker 1: bombing the first few jokes. And then I had two

251
00:12:41,880 --> 00:12:44,679
Speaker 1: jokes that I remember. I thought of this the other day.

252
00:12:44,679 --> 00:12:47,200
Speaker 1: Here's the joke. I have a joke that goes an

253
00:12:47,200 --> 00:12:49,720
Speaker 1: old joke that I said, they say, when you have

254
00:12:49,720 --> 00:12:51,559
Speaker 1: sex with someone, you're having sex with everyone they had

255
00:12:51,559 --> 00:12:53,440
Speaker 1: sex with, and everyone they had sex with, no and on,

256
00:12:54,240 --> 00:12:56,760
Speaker 1: and I wondered if I've ever slept with Kevin Bacon,

257
00:12:56,760 --> 00:12:59,680
Speaker 1: and that's a retired joke from the old days. That's

258
00:12:59,720 --> 00:13:01,959
Speaker 1: the same up and punch. And then there was another

259
00:13:02,080 --> 00:13:05,880
Speaker 1: joke I had that went like, I texted my old

260
00:13:05,920 --> 00:13:08,920
Speaker 1: girlfriend now my old girlfrill. She was my old girlfriend

261
00:13:08,960 --> 00:13:10,800
Speaker 1: at the time. This is a true story. I actually

262
00:13:10,840 --> 00:13:14,160
Speaker 1: texted you this. I was like, come over soon, I'm

263
00:13:14,200 --> 00:13:18,240
Speaker 1: totally horny, and my friend Eric text me back. It

264
00:13:18,320 --> 00:13:21,720
Speaker 1: was like, uh, what's this text for. I'm like, oh,

265
00:13:22,280 --> 00:13:24,880
Speaker 1: for someone else. It's like, why are you busy? You know,

266
00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:26,880
Speaker 1: and I go, why are you busy? And it's like,

267
00:13:27,559 --> 00:13:30,400
Speaker 1: whatever the fucking joke was, I'm already fucking up my joke.

268
00:13:31,080 --> 00:13:34,760
Speaker 1: Twelve years point is I did the setup of the

269
00:13:34,920 --> 00:13:38,160
Speaker 1: of the Kevin Bacon joke when you have sex and

270
00:13:38,240 --> 00:13:42,600
Speaker 1: so you're sex, and I wondered, it's just like how

271
00:13:42,679 --> 00:13:45,400
Speaker 1: quick can you get here? And everyone just like goes what.

272
00:13:46,480 --> 00:13:48,840
Speaker 1: And then I remember being up on the stage bombing

273
00:13:48,960 --> 00:13:51,959
Speaker 1: so bad. I'm like, oh, I just ate through two

274
00:13:52,280 --> 00:13:58,160
Speaker 1: jokes and my brain is on fire. And I was

275
00:13:58,240 --> 00:14:00,320
Speaker 1: at that point you know when you start how many

276
00:14:00,360 --> 00:14:02,240
Speaker 1: you write it all the time, and you get into

277
00:14:02,280 --> 00:14:04,160
Speaker 1: it and you're fucking into it and into it. And

278
00:14:04,200 --> 00:14:06,600
Speaker 1: I was at like a lull moment in Stand Up

279
00:14:06,600 --> 00:14:09,800
Speaker 1: Too where I was like, my mom was a little rusty. Yeah,

280
00:14:10,160 --> 00:14:12,480
Speaker 1: I wasn't writing new material. I was probably writing on

281
00:14:12,480 --> 00:14:14,080
Speaker 1: the show at that point, so I think I was

282
00:14:14,160 --> 00:14:18,280
Speaker 1: like fulfilled in some level. But it's all I remember

283
00:14:18,360 --> 00:14:20,560
Speaker 1: being like, ah shit, and then it just got bad.

284
00:14:20,920 --> 00:14:22,560
Speaker 1: But the best was at the end of my cousin

285
00:14:23,200 --> 00:14:25,320
Speaker 1: this one guy Seth, who I knew from high school

286
00:14:25,520 --> 00:14:28,560
Speaker 1: and I kind of we've always been frenemies. He just

287
00:14:28,640 --> 00:14:30,520
Speaker 1: kind of was like he need never seen me before

288
00:14:30,600 --> 00:14:33,760
Speaker 1: and he saw me bomb and he kind of made

289
00:14:33,800 --> 00:14:36,520
Speaker 1: a comment and my cousin Bob goes to me, He goes,

290
00:14:37,800 --> 00:14:42,440
Speaker 1: you know the stuff I've seen online's good and that

291
00:14:42,560 --> 00:14:44,720
Speaker 1: was his comment. And then and then it just wasn't

292
00:14:44,720 --> 00:14:47,160
Speaker 1: that fun of a night. It was like put that

293
00:14:47,280 --> 00:14:51,400
Speaker 1: in the bourbon files, like what are the many reasons

294
00:14:51,440 --> 00:14:53,160
Speaker 1: I'll just like not touch the bourbon.

295
00:14:53,440 --> 00:14:56,680
Speaker 2: Wait, so your high school friends are there, and a

296
00:14:56,760 --> 00:14:58,800
Speaker 2: frind of me was like.

297
00:14:58,800 --> 00:15:00,840
Speaker 1: A front of me, Like it was like my buddy

298
00:15:00,920 --> 00:15:04,760
Speaker 1: Jay's friend and it was like watched bomb and that's

299
00:15:04,760 --> 00:15:06,680
Speaker 1: all he knows me. I said, like I think I like,

300
00:15:06,720 --> 00:15:08,960
Speaker 1: I like fought this guy before, like I've like puniched

301
00:15:09,040 --> 00:15:12,360
Speaker 1: him in the face. Other times he's like closer to

302
00:15:12,480 --> 00:15:13,960
Speaker 1: enemy than in front of him. He's friend of me

303
00:15:14,000 --> 00:15:17,920
Speaker 1: because we have the same friends. So like so socially,

304
00:15:18,120 --> 00:15:22,880
Speaker 1: nobody's gonna like they're like, oh, come on, guys. But

305
00:15:22,960 --> 00:15:26,760
Speaker 1: like as adults, sometimes people just don't like each other.

306
00:15:26,800 --> 00:15:29,920
Speaker 1: It's just like one of those things you gotta be like, yeah, yeah,

307
00:15:29,960 --> 00:15:32,720
Speaker 1: I just don't like him and the and it's nothing

308
00:15:32,760 --> 00:15:39,080
Speaker 1: he did, uh, other than my own internal like I

309
00:15:39,120 --> 00:15:43,240
Speaker 1: have an internal with some people. Yeah. Life, that's how human,

Speaker 2: they're just gonna get sick and go to the hospital.

349
00:17:43,640 --> 00:17:46,200
Speaker 1: Wait, you go the wrong way. There's an alcohol class. Yeah,

00:17:58,080 --> 00:18:01,760
Speaker 1: don't know. Everyone's got an old Yeah. People should know

355
00:18:01,800 --> 00:18:06,400
Speaker 1: about the risks. Yeah, the risks, the poison of alcohol

356
00:18:06,440 --> 00:18:09,399
Speaker 1: breaking down in your liver, the feeling of hangover. If

357
00:18:09,440 --> 00:18:12,160
Speaker 1: you took a shot of acid aaldehyde, you'd have a hangover. Yeah,

358
00:18:12,480 --> 00:18:14,080
Speaker 1: it was just like an instant hangover. Yeah.

359
00:18:14,119 --> 00:18:16,520
Speaker 2: You know what Hamilton Morris told me, Acetal to hide

00:23:34,960 --> 00:23:40,119
Speaker 1: they really thoroughly enjoyed it. And then the hosts of

464
00:23:40,160 --> 00:23:43,000
Speaker 1: the show after that they go that that got buzz.

465
00:23:43,520 --> 00:23:46,040
Speaker 1: But there was a fight and then it like started

466
00:23:46,040 --> 00:23:48,720
Speaker 1: like the audience changed, because then it started turning into

467
00:23:48,760 --> 00:23:51,400

469
00:23:57,320 --> 00:24:00,199
Speaker 1: I think they said that that was their show. I

470
00:24:00,200 --> 00:24:02,520
Speaker 1: think they set up a fake fight a few weeks

471
00:24:02,600 --> 00:24:06,399
Speaker 1: later and it didn't work. And it was like we

472
00:24:06,480 --> 00:24:10,040
Speaker 1: learned that in production, like fake fighting looks fake, looks

473
00:24:10,040 --> 00:24:13,920
Speaker 1: fake unless you know the magic of cutting makes John

474
00:24:14,000 --> 00:24:16,320
Speaker 1: Wick look good. If you just like watch raw footage

475
00:24:16,320 --> 00:24:19,439
Speaker 1: of John Wick, you wouldn't be like, wow, he's fighting.

476
00:24:19,680 --> 00:24:22,880
Speaker 1: But yeah, that that was a fun little thing.

477
00:24:25,880 --> 00:24:38,480
Speaker 5: With Aerdre. With Aerdre, there's lots of waste to bomb.

478
00:24:38,640 --> 00:24:43,480
Speaker 5: My friend, ways, what bomb have you seen in real life?

479
00:24:43,840 --> 00:24:45,360
Speaker 1: That was like the worst bomb you've ever seen?

480
00:24:45,920 --> 00:24:48,680
Speaker 2: Now we don't have to say the comedian you'd before.

00:24:49,200 --> 00:24:52,080
Speaker 2: I've asked it before and I'm asking it again, brother man.

482
00:24:52,240 --> 00:24:55,200
Speaker 1: I liked this one guy, al who used to bomb,

483
00:24:55,200 --> 00:24:58,359
Speaker 1: but he was self aware about it. He's like, I

Speaker 1: see he could feel it. And I liked that guy because.

486
00:25:04,760 --> 00:25:07,159
